Distance Education & Correspondence Education
Instructions
x Review all degree programs offered through Distance Education or Correspondence Education. Distance education or correspondence education programs are those certificate or degree programs in which 50% or more of the required courses may be taken as distance-delivered courses.
x Log in to HLC’s Distance & Correspondence Education Update System to update the information on your institution’s Distance Education or Correspondence Education programs. When you add a new program, that program is not automatically added to the list. In accordance with HLC policy, the program must first be reviewed and then added after the Institutional Update closes. If you make changes to an existing program, hit the refresh button and you will see the changes.
Distance-delivered CoursesDistance delivered courses are those in which all or the vast majority (typically 75% or more) of the instruction and interaction occurs via electronic communication, correspondence, or equivalent mechanisms, with the faculty and students physically separated from each other.
Distance-delivered ProgramsDistance-delivered programs are those certificates or degree programs in which 50% or more of the required coursesmay be taken as distance-delivered courses.
Federal Definition for Correspondence EducationCorrespondence education means (1) Education provided through one or more courses by an institution under which the institution provides instructional materials, by mail or electronic transmission, including examinations on the materials, to students who are separated from the instructor. (2) Interaction between the instructor and the student is limited, is not regular and substantive, and is primarily initiated by the student. (3) Correspondence courses are typically self-paced. (4) Correspondence education is not distance education.
Federal Definition for Distance EducationDistance education means education that uses one or more of the following technologies (i) to deliver instruction to students who are separated from the instructor; and (ii) to support regular and substantive interaction between the students and the instructor, either synchronously or asynchronously. The technologies used may include: (i) the internet; (ii) one way and two way transmission through open broadcast, closed circuit cable, microwave, broadband lines, fiber optics, satellite, or wireless communication devices; (iii) audioconferencing; or (iv) videocassettes, DVDs, and CD-Roms, if the videocassettes, DVDs or CD-Roms are used in conjunction with any of the above technologies listed in clauses (i) through (iii).

Branch Campuses
Instructions
To ensure that students off campus have consistent access to Title IV federal student aid, institutions should work closely with their Financial Aid Offices to ensure that information about off-campus operations is consistently reportedto the U.S. Department of Education (USDE) and to the Higher Learning Commission. HLC does not approve branchcampuses or additional locations retroactively; therefore it is very important for institutions and the students they serve that institutions seek approval well before any students matriculate at a new or relocated campus or additional location.
x A Branch Campus is "a location of an institution that is geographically apart and independent of the main campus of the institution”. HLC considers a location of an institution to be independent of the main campus if the location:o Is permanent in nature.o Offers courses in educational programs leading to a degree, certificate, or other recognized
educational credential.o Has its own faculty and administrative or supervisory organization.o Has its own budgetary and hiring authority.o A branch campus must have all four of these attributes.

Additional Locations
Instructions
To ensure that students off campus have consistent access to Title IV federal student aid, institutions should work closely with their Financial Aid Offices to ensure that information about off-campus operations is consistently reportedto the U.S. Department of Education (USDE) and to the Higher Learning Commission. HLC does not approve branch campuses or additional locations retroactively; therefore, it is important that institutions seek approval well before any students matriculate at a new or relocated campus or additional location.
x An Additional Location is defined as a place, geographically separate from any main or branch campus, where instruction takes place and students can do one or more of the following:o Complete 50 percent or more of the courses leading to a degree program.o Complete a full degree program.o Complete 50 percent or more of the courses leading to a Title IV eligible certificate.o Complete a degree program that they began at another institution even if the degree completion
program provides less that 50 percent of the courses leading to a degree program.o There is no base or threshold number of students or distance from the campus necessary for a
facility to qualify as an additional location under this definition. An additional location may have five students or 500 students; it might be five miles or 500 miles from the main or other campus.
o An additional location typically does not have a full range of administrative and student services staffed by the facilities personnel; such services may be provided from the main campus or anothercampus.
o A facility may provide access to instruction requiring students to be present at a physical location that receives interactive TV, video, or online teaching. It is considered an additional location when 50 percent or more of a distance delivery program is available through one or more of these modalities at that facility.
x Log in to the HLC’s Location & Campus Update System to update the information on your institution’s Additional Locations. o Enter a head count range for each additional location based on the actual or anticipated enrollment
